Unwritten Absence

Sunday morning sunshine in your absence adrifts my yearning in winter breeze cool I sink or swim, doesn't make a difference the white swan ponders in a shallow pool Incomplete journey, some for no reason, You moved on, perhaps migrated like birds my blank canvas of pallid spring season calligraphy strokes of unwritten words. in chorus of wind, air is thick and dense lyrics forgotten for a song composed evergreen pine tree holds in abeyance plethora of feelings, all undisclosed Your lingering presence...all my ink spills no words on your tombstone, engraved love fills.

Beautiful sonnet . Love your rhymes and wordplay and how you’ve articulated your lines in such an awe inspiring manner. Especially that last stanza stood out for me with “ chorus of wind” “ lyrics forgotten for a song composed” excellent! Very creative and heartfelt! Thank you for writing. Congratulations on winning
